Nut Allergies

Saturday 10th December 2005

A new survey believes that about 10% of children with nut allergies, will outgrow them. A EU directive stands making it compulsory for manufacturers to mention any food that 'might' have been handled by those coming into contact with nuts, to mention it on their label. It's estimated that 2-3% of the British population suffer from food allergies of some sort or another.
